ExtraSchicht 2026 at the Jahrhunderthalle Bochum: A night that will light up the Ruhr area
On June 27, 2026, ExtraSchicht will transform the Jahrhunderthalle Bochum into a spectacle of light, music, and industrial culture. This top-tier cultural festival promises an intense multi-day experience in one single night, where live music, DJs, light installations, comedy, and guided tours come together to create a vibrant festival atmosphere.
Industrial culture meets characterful festival organization
Since 2001, ExtraSchicht has been showcasing the coolest settings in the Ruhr area and making locations that often remain hidden in daily life accessible.
